Psalms 69:16-21

¹⁶Answer me, Yahweh, for your loving kindness is good. According to the multitude of your tender mercies, turn to me.

¹⁷Don’t hide your face from your servant, for I am in distress. Answer me speedily!

¹⁸Draw near to my soul and redeem it. Ransom me because of my enemies.

¹⁹You know my reproach, my shame, and my dishonor. My adversaries are all before you.

²⁰Reproach has broken my heart, and I am full of heaviness. I looked for some to take pity, but there was none; for comforters, but I found none.

²¹They also gave me poison for my food. In my thirst, they gave me vinegar to drink.
